Video Marketing: Properly Capture
Projects for Company Branding
Brian Javeline, MyOnlineToolbox
TRACK: MARKETING
There is only one way to present your value proposition with emotion and
passion, and that is through video. People read while hearing their own
voice, yet video brings the message to your customers exactly how you
want them to hear it. Professional videos are obviously the best choice, but
videos by smartphone can be quality driven too. Making videos is 50% of
the marketing challenge, and how to use them to generate More Quality
Leads is the other 50% of the marketing opportunity. Why create videos if
no one will find them in the first place? Many fail to use their best projects
and clients correctly when it comes to Video Marketing. We teach you how
to get your best 24x7 salesforce to promote your business. Real examples
from the industry are used to help educate and motivate you to taking
advantage of a major competitive differentiator.

If you have ever been confused about the various natural stone types
and how they will perform in your client's home, come to this 'science
lab' session! New colors of natural stone are introduced into the market
regularly. They may be labeled with a specific stone type such as marble,
granite, or quartzite, but unfortunately mislabeling occurs. This causes
confusion about how to care for the countertops, and as designers you
want to be able to make good recommendations to your clients. This
science lab' session will show you how to identify the proper stone type.
When you know the stone type, you can predict how it will perform in your

expectations.
